  Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente.

  While the pasta is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

• 3

  Add the ground turkey to the skillet, breaking it into small crumbles with a spatula.

• 4

  Season the turkey with smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, chili powder, sea salt, and black pepper to create the chorizo flavor profile.

  Stir in the diced yellow onion and minced garlic, sautéing for 4-5 minutes until the turkey is browned and the onions are soft.

  Pour in the tomato puree and reduce the heat to medium-low, simmering for 5-7 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
